Sheffield Wednesday: Matt Penney “would love” to extend his Owls stay

Hot prospect Matt Penney has told The Star he "would love" to sign a new Wednesday contract.

The left-sided player, who has been one of the Owls' shining lights this term, is set to become a free agent next summer.

But a large section of Wednesday's fan-base have called on the Championship club to move quickly to tie Penney down to fresh terms following a series of impressive performances from the 20-year-old in recent weeks.

Penney, who has been the Owls books since the age of eight, said: "Don't get me wrong, I would love to sign a new deal at this club. It is a massive club. I love being here and I'm enjoying my football.
